Harris Ranch is a vibrant community in the heart of Northeast Boise. Close to the Boise River, Greenbelt, Shakespeare Theater, and the new East Junior High, residents appreciate the low maintenance grounds and close proximity to recreational opportunities. There are two distinct phase of Harris Ranch, with the first being the original Spring Creek and Mill Districts constructed in early 2000. The Spring Creek phase of Harris Ranch featured standard home sites near one-quarter acre in size, and there were common area strips providing occasional buffers between homes to give the community a sense of roominess. The Mill District homes were generally alley-load lots, with low maintenance grounds.

The new phase of Harris Ranch is located just east of the new Parkcenter Bridge. The new phase also features low maintenance lots for active homeowners that forego larger lots in return for being close to trails, restaurants and parks. Architectural style for the newer portion of Harris Ranch has a modern bent.
